2. Define nationalism in your own words:

Take notes on the following. Make sure you connect the events back to nationalism.
  • Unification of Italy:
- Count Camillo di Cavour supported industrial developement, also extended power of parliament to please liberals.
- Cavour started an alliance w/ France to take over northern Italy, controled by Austria, in 1858.
- The war created a nationalist rebellion in favor to Cavour which unified most of Italy under the Piedmontese King --> led to reduction of Pope
  • Unification of Germany:
- Bismarck in Prussia used military strategies to gain control over Germany.
- Went against Austria and beat them, making it closer to unify Germany.
- The last war against France brought unification in Germany in 1871.

3. Summarize the global impact of nationalism (limit to 200 words/ 1/2 page)
Due to industrialization becoming big and an important factor for the modern world, nationalism became big too, because people were starting to become unified. They were starting to feel proud of the nation they were part of, and wanted to be their own, independent state. Nationalism had a global impact because, nations were starting to become one, which meant economies and cities started to boom. A nation could stand on its on two feet and make its own living, instead of relying on some other nation. Nationalism also created better forms of goverments, such as a democratic government in the United States, but nationalism in other nations created a better form of governing, like in Britain with their parliamentry.

  • Which of the data sets above do you think is the most significant? Why?
I believe the most significant data set above would be the iron production data set, because it shows the most
dramatic increases of numbers in the production of iron from 1830 to 1913. Also, it shows the the changes the nation went through
during their period of industrialization, and it also shows how the countries have developed over the time period.
  • Taken together what do these data sets tell us?
Taken together, these data sets tell and show us the change these countries went through with the help of
industrialization. All three, trade, iron production, and life expectancy changed drastically during the industrialization era, causing these countries
to further develope, and even to improve their nationalism.

5. Read the following and answer the questions below
external image pdf.png Industrial Revolution Introduction.pdf
  • What was the Industrial revolution?
The Industrial revolution was a revolution in production, transport, and communication.
  • What was its origins?
The Industrial revolution originated from Britain in the late 18th century.
  • What were its major effects?
The major effects of the revolution was that it created new energy sources for machinery such as coal, steam, and iron for
textiles, railways, and streamships. But by the 2nd half of the Industrial revolution, new sources such as steel, petroleum, electricity, chemicals, cars, and airplanes became very important aspects of modern day life. These new sources and technology helped the growth of people moving into urban cities, but it also hurt many people's jobs, because machinery started to replace workers.

6. Now referring to your textbook create a chart or mindmap of the effects of Industrialization. You must include the following
  • Gender roles/issues
  • Family Structures
  • Social Structures
  • Extension of voting rights (chartist movement)
  • Mass leisure culture
  • Romanticism
  • Socialism
  • Communism

Imperialism
7. Examine the map below and the data that follows - What do they show us?
The map and data shown below, show us that Great Britian has really expanded their empire, and although these countries don't have G.B's power on them anymore, they still have their influences lingering over their nations. The only exception here would be most of the Americas, and also Germany, although Germany only beat G.B. through their large population.

8. Define Imperialism in your own words:
Imperialism is when a nation starts to take over another nation for resources they might not have, or to just expand their empire.

9. What were the motivations for Imperialism?
Some motivations were to gain resources they did not have, to expand their empire, to gain more land, to further their trading system, or to just make more revenue.

While many countries, including but not limited to France, Germany, Belgium, and the United Nations, engaged in Imperialist activity; Great Britain is known above all as the best example of a true imperialist nation. We will examine the actions of Great Britain to gain a better understanding of the nature, extent and effects of Imperialism.

10. Before note-taking, look for the following key terms (not in the glossary!) and define them in your own words.


  • The British East India Company: An English stock company who had much power in India
  • Sepoys: Indian troops recruited from around the continent by the British
  • British Raj: The British settling into India and taking over their governments; ruling them through the British rules
  • Partition of Africa/ Berlin Conference: A partition of Africa into 7 different regions controlled by, German, Italian, Belgium, Spanish, Portugese, Spanish, French and British (mainly British & French)
  • Settlement Colonies: Europeans started these colonies, usually at times of war, temporalily, Europeans migrated their, made it their home and usually tried to drive out the natives of that land out (North America)
  • White Dominions: groups of white people that were part of colonies, ruled by the British (Canada & Australians)
  • Cecil Rhodes: A British business man, who founded a diamond company in Africa (tensions increased between Boers & British - wars started)
  • James Cook: British explorer who discovered Hawaii
